In a considerable number of our last Paper (by an alteration after was at press) a transposition of a few lines was made in the BERKSHIRE PETITION. To rectify this inadvertency, the Printer has judged necessary to reprint it.
The Moderation, the good Sense, the Decency and Elegance of this Piece, afford a most striking and most pleasing Contrast to the indecent and illiberal Aspersions of the BLOODY Addresses, whose Aim is to precipitate their Country into all the Horrors of a ruinous Civil War. It does equal Honor to the noble Lords who promoted it, and to the Cause they espouse. It was present on the same Day with the Address, by the Members of the County.
To the KING's Most Excellent MAJESTY.
The Humble ADDRESS and PETITION of the FREEHOLDERS of the County of BERKS.
May it please you Majesty !
It is for that principle joined with that infirmity, that we presume to supplicate your Majesty's clemency.
The disorders have arisen from a complaint, plausible at least, of one right violated; and we can never be brought to imagine, that the true remedy for such disorders consists in an attack on all other rights, and an attempt to drive the people either to unconditional submission or absolute despair.Sire, the affairs of your empire are distracted, because they are misconducted. The consequences of the measures pursued are as evident as they are deplorable.
Your Majesty's Ministers, finding the forces of your natural born subjects not sufficiently powerful for, or not sufficiently disposed to, the present coercive service, have listened to the offers of foreign nations, who have thought fit, it seems, voluntarily, and therefore in a manner the more alarming to all true Englishmen, to interfere in our domestic differences.When we have such terrible objects in prospect, we forget the millions we are spending, and the millions more we are like to spend, in this unhappy and unfruitful contest.
Deign, therefore, most gracious Sovereign, to ��. delivered by the affectionate voice of duty and fidelity; strenuous as we are for the honour of our country, we cannot be forgetful of the peace and concord. It is therefore we abhor the idea of encouraging foreigners to make a prey of this nation, and its dependencies, under the miserable and uncovered pretext of discountenancing faction and sedition among ourselves.Abingdon | John Stevens | Rich.
